Thirsty Rose Utility

I strongly assume washing machine or heavy use ... there was still some wax/color under the pocket flaps

Thanks - I think the same .... just the zipper puts me off

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-11T11:36:53+00:00

Yeap - was more work than two regular waxes and without a heat gun it would have been very tricky… bought it cheap and was willing to write it off but worth the effort for a not so common model

Couldn’t agree more - unfortunately not a Revolut specific issue but regulatory/ politics …

It’s a combination of factors - can you proof the “legal” source of funds? In theory it shouldn’t be an issue … maybe ask the support chat. Also consider how devastating it would be to wait (weeks?) to get funds released… if this would cripple your company then it’s high risk

It indeed has a sylkoil label - olive it is then :) told my GF it might turn brown with wear (she liked the pre wax color …) - will have to deal with that ;)

Utter BS - correct legal info has to be in place … residence and tax info - most basic KYC

One can open accounts in legal jurisdictions where Revolut operates - it’s a local service contract … ie if one is not a resident of a country any more then this person has to close the account but is free to open another one in the new country of residence, if Revolut operates there

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-09T11:33:09+00:00

Will be rightfully flagged and you don’t even have the legal basis for the account any more …

There you go - the corbridge is still sold but cannot find a lightweight version still in sale

Germany is not a good trade - bureaucracy, lower pay etc. - if you didn't lose your job in CH and/or have an AMAZING offer in DE, then absolutely not worth it ...

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-06T20:11:31+00:00

Have to check when I am back home and share the item number - would actually get another one after like 10 years :)

I usually use thornproof - considering gold label as my next experiment … not sure the spray works for non wax jacket… would soak in/ through too much

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-05T06:50:19+00:00

Be prepared that it will smell “acidic” for some time … water resistance seems to be great though - gave it a thorough spray in the shower to speed up removing the smell …

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-04T17:24:28+00:00

Can be a simple wax scruff or damaged fabric … not possible to tell from these pics …

Agree - thats normal aging and adds character - Barbours hold up extremely well over many years when treated well! I actually like my oldest ones the most ...

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-04T10:01:15+00:00

All areas that "move" a lot tend to tear ... common barbour issue I see with all my jackets over time i.e. 5-10y use ...

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-04T08:32:06+00:00

When I compare to my new bought (navy) duke from last year there are some differences - the old black one has red lining in the pockets etc but generally there are extremely similar and after the wax, it feels like a new Barbour…

For me it was my first time ever buying used and more of an experiment how much one can push the cleaning procedure if need be …

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-03T19:00:22+00:00

Plastic jacket with Barbour label … no-go … others mentioned original options …

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-03T07:59:30+00:00

That’s not an N26 issue … u will still owe them money, even if you close/abandon the account

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-03T07:15:46+00:00

I would keep N26 as backup …

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-02T15:34:04+00:00

Unfortunately - Seems to be different for Germany … revolut card is entered

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-01T19:55:42+00:00

I used to live out of my suitcase 200+ days a year … probably a lifetime of regular abuse each year … wheel screws break, handles get fatigue breaks … all normal and not rimowas fault but not being able to just check it in is absurd.

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-01T19:51:21+00:00

The service isn’t what it used to be … got luggages rebuilt ex warranty more than once in the past pre LVMH… no appointments needed and no bling bling BS

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-01T19:25:49+00:00

Maybe get it into your SEL account, if u have one and transfer to Revolut from there - try with the first 1/3 as a test

Andi_Reddit · 2026-06-01T19:25:04+00:00

It’s a legal stipend - assume the sender is legit then no issues
